    Hello everyone!!
    Well, it's been a while since I posted a cast iron doorstop, so I thought I'd post this one. It is a copy of a 1930 Taylor Cook No. 1 Penguin doorstop. It's a pretty good copy of the original, but the feet are different from the original as well as several other small details. Still, I really love this one. It measures 9 1/4" tall, 5 1/4" wide and weighs just over 7lbs.

    Thanks very much for stopping in for a look!!

    Scott

      Dave,
      Thanks!! Taylor Cook made a series of these in 1931 and they were all very whimsical. I have a few from that series, but most are not within my collecting budget:)
